IN THE REALM WHERE WOMAN REIGNS

MOVIE LAND Lillian Gish MILLIONS LOVE.HER

Do What You Can! ••But I want to go into pictures; I don't want to pal* for advertisements:” Tiat s wbar a frirl told me the other day; she’d asked for my advice, but she made it so clear that she didn't want it, that I subsided into silence. She bad been telling me that she wanted to get into pictures; she*had played in several productions as an extra. and had had one or two very small parts. She was crasy about acting—l say “crazy” advisedly. And she Just knew that she never would be happy until she had made good as an actress. But there are hundreds and hundreds —one motion picture agent says "thousands”—of motion picture people out of work this summer; people who, like this girl, had a fairly good start, but had no regular contracts with any of the companies. The let-down In production, has left them absolutely stranded. This girl had had an offer from a commercial photographer; she is very pretty, and he said that he could use her in pictures for advisements and calendars, as well as in fashion photographs for catalogs and things of that sort. He would pay her very well. And she refused the offer! She said she wanted to act. she didn't want to be a model. In vain the photographer's wife argued with her; In vain I plead. She wanted to act in pictures, and she believed in sticking to what you go after. Well, persistence is ali right, bnt when other girls with just as much talent and beauty are working in hotels as chambermaids, and doing general housework, and doing Just about everything else they can think of as a way of making both ends meet, it seemed to me sheer idiocy not to do what was at hand, and do it as well as she possibly could. That's the tronb though, with most people who want a career; they want to do the big thing right away. You can't do that. In the days way back, when Dorothy and I want-

KEEPING HOUSE WITH THE HOOPERS

(The Hoopers, an average American family of live, living in a aubnrnan town, on a limited income, will ten the readers of the Dally Times how tiie many preseut-day problems or the home are solved by working on the budget that Mrs. Hooper has evolved and found practical, rouow them dally in an Interesting review of their home lire and learn to inee. tae conditions of tne high co,i 01 living with them.) SATURDAY. After the house had been put to rights, a little canning done, and luncheon prepared and served the whole familc adjourned to the vegetable garden to begin the attack on ihe plant lice that had suddenly appeared and were playing such havoc with all the vegetables. The g,-n eral belief is that after the middle of July any back yard vegetable garden is safe from irseer pests and that if tbe family has worked -onstantly "hud faith fn’lv for part of each day from tiie time the garden is planted until midsummer tout tln-rc is no farther need of worry, either from' weeds or bugs. But this is not true, as many gardeners have discovered when it is too late. Constant vigilnuee seems to be the price of a successful vegetable garden Tbe Hooper family has not neglected tbeirs as Henry had spent a couple of hours every clay in it <>u his return from the offiee; Roger had taken on eertain things about tbs care of it as part of his daily routine work and even Mrs. Hooper had watched It carefully, and between tlms bad helped with the weeding and picking of the vegetables. But in spite ol all this they were outwitted by tbe voracious lice that were devouring th plants before their very eyes. Mrs. Hooper's sugges tion that they tise the old whisk brooms lo spray the tobacco solution on tbe underside of tbe leates proved to be an excellent one. as this gave the insects the thorough soaking which would kill them. “How mneh do you figure that this garden will save us this year?” Mr. Hooper asked his wife as they met in tbe middle of a long row of melons, that they had been spraying from c opposite ends of the patch.” "Well I've always told you Henry that the value of this garden cannot be measured solely in terms of money.” answered Mrs. Hooper. “It enables us to have a great deal more fruit and vegetables than we eould possibly have, i arwlse irrespective of coat; and It • urnlshed them deliriomly fresh for about three months Besides it gives you a long period of very healthful exercise after your Inactive hours over a desk aid added to that Jt gives Roger some-

HOROSCOPE "The stars Incline, but do nod compel 1"

SUNDAY, AUG. 7. This is read as threatening day by astrologers. Venus, the Sun. Saturn and Neptune are all In malefic aspect. Mars and Jupiter are friendly. As the sinister planetary forces dominate this is a rule under which to pursue all vocations quietly. It is a Sunday for calm reflection and analysis, rather than action. Persons whose birthdate it is may expect an active year In business, domestic affairs may not be altogether satisfactory. / Children born on this day will probably ’be bright and clever. These subjects of Leo are usually successful in business.

ed engagements In the play. “A Good Little Devil,” and I got one and Dorothy didn't, she accepted Mr. Griffith’s offer to go into pictures—which certainly was more sensible than It would have been to just sit around New York waiting fur the kind of engagement she wanted. Pic rures were in their infancy then, and Dorothy didn't especially care about making them, but tt was a chance to do something, and she took it. Now, posing for a commercial photographer is a good way of getting into the movies. Your face is seen by thousands, it's advertised, Jnst as the product which it advertises is Edith Johnson, who plays opposite William Duncan, was known everywhere as “The Kodak Girl before she went Into pictures. There are other actress who began in thi* w ay. Ever so many actresses, among them Justine Johnstone and Anna Q. Nilsson. were artists' models at the beginning of their careers, and a girl who poses for a commercial photographer has an even better chance than an artists' model, it seems to me. r think it's always a mistake- to shnt the door on Dame Fortune, whether you like what she’s offering you or not; if the wrong thing comes up, you'll know that it doesn t come from her. Honest work, honestly done, is sure to lead to something good—that's been my expert enee, anyway. And 1 recommend the slogan to you. • QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS. Bill —Lsrry Semon makes comedies for Vitagraph. not for Goldwyn. Mabel Normaud has left Goldwyn and signed again with Mack Sennet. Will Rogers Is with Goldwyn. Charlie Chaplin is not married again, though It is rumored that he will raflTry May Collins. Phyllis—Yes. there are many geed books on scenario writing, and I thlr.k yon could learn ns much from the on-s you mentioned as from the course you asked about.— Copyright, ltd.

thing to do very day for the result of which he is mostly responsible " . “But aside from all that." insisted Henry, "yon must be able to figure a definite sum saved to your budget at the end of the year, because of the returns from this little parch of back yard garden. I can’t imagine you being really satisfied unless you could estimate our gain against what you would have to spend for the equivalent of what tbe garden yields.” “Well I belipTe that after the expenses are deducted and these I intend to pay out of our “shelter’ - allowance this month that this garden will save us about one hundred and fifty dc.lars this year,” replied Mrs. Hooper. “That is putting nr value on our labor, I suppose,” siiggcstei Henry. “Os course not,” replied Mrs. Hooper. Your labor is paid fir In the result to your health from working out of doors, siol with what you get to eat all next winter, that I couldn't possibly afford to give you and which wc would miss sadly now that we have grown used to having a bountiful supply of fruit and veg etebleg all the year around. I can't understand why so many people in Mayfield discontinued their back' yard gar dens as goon as the war was over Surely the need of them as far as tho individual family is concerned is as great now as it ever wag.” "Well there is no denying that It Is a great deal of work." replied Henry. “And -a coup'e of hours every day added to what a man already puts In at an office Is more of a fax than most of them want to carry. If one could work In the gar den a few times a week, or whenever the spirit would move one It wouldn’t bo so had, but It means being on the Job every minute If there are to be any worth while results. Even after the way we were watching this garden and worked it Jnt look at the destruction these bugs have accomplished “ “Well, anyhow it's worth while,” re plied Mrs. Hooper, “and every one with a bark yard ought to have a garden." The menus for the three meals on Sunday are: BREAKFAST Cantaloupes Cereal Frizzled Bacon and Eggs Popovers Coffee DINNER Rosst Leg of Mutton Brown Potatoes Vegetable Salad Buttered Beets Frozen Fruit Mold SC P PER Cold Meat Horseradish Sauce Bread and Butter Cake Chocolate Milk Shake

MONDAY, ANO. 8. Astrologers read this as a very uncertain day. Neptune and the Sun are In benefle aspect early in the morning, but Uranus has evil power later. Initiative of every sort is supposed to be stimulated by this rule of the stars, but while the desire for achievement may be strong, judgment may be trustworty. All who seek support or aid from persons in posi'lons of authority should be successful, if they make the appeal be fore noon. Persons whose birthdate it Is have ths augury of a fortunate year. Business should prosper greatly unless the temptation to enjoy pleasure and company prove too alluring. Children born on tble day are likely' to be exceedingly gifted. They should have common sense as well as talent and will rise rapidly in any vocation they choose.—Copyright, 1921.

PUSS IN BOOTS JR.

By David Cory. “

You remember when we left off in tbi last story that Puss and bt3 craw Lad started off from the Noah's Ark In the lifeboat to rescue the two Polar bears. “Careful, now."’ cried Puss. “Pull on your starboard oar!” Tha boat grazed the icebrg. “Jump!" shouted Puss. “Quick:” And then one of the bears gave a spring and landed safely in the boat. His mate, however, slipped as ha was about to Jump, and a big wave at that moment whirled the boat away from the ice, and with a big splash he landed in tbe angry sea. “Throw him a life preserver:” shouted Captain Noah. “Throw him a lifeline!” yelled Sbem. “Throw him the anchor!" growled Japheth, who never did like tbe Polar nears, you know. But Cockswain Puss Junior was not the least bit rattled. He steered the boat toward the frightened and told Ham to catch hold of him. “Now pull for all you're worth i" shouted Puss to tbe monkeys, “:nd ■well tow Brother Boar!" But, oh dear me: The great waves kept washing ever the little boat, and the two monkeys had a hard time rowing with that great heavy bear dragging at the stern. “They'll he swamped!” screamed Mrs Noah, as a tremendous great wave dashed over the little life bogt. “Ball. bail, you lubber:” khouted Puss to the bear In the boat. “Well ail be In Davy Jones' locker If you don't:” Well pretty soon alongside the Ar. and Captain Noam-let dov.n a rope ladder.

u-p which the two bears managed to scramble after a hard struggle. And after that Cockswain Puss Junior and his crew came aboard, and the lifeboat was hoisted up on deck. Motherly Mrs. Noah at once put the two bears to bed after a hot mustard bath and a drink of Jamaica Ginger. "Well, this beats the old days all holler!” exclaimed Captain Noah. “We never bad such accidents on my first voyage. It Just rained and rained for forty days and forty nights." “That's the truth, my dear.” agreed Mrs. Noah. "I remember it very well. Hain was Just a baby and the other two boys were little fellows. It was hard work finding something new for them to do each day. Rainy days on board ship —well, I never want to go through with it again.” "I should think your boys would think you're Just lovely." said little Puss Junior "Well, I guess we do." said Haul, kissing his mother. “You know we do, mother dear.” “Os course I do," she replied, giving him a hug. “Go and kiss your motbe-.'' said Captain Noah to Shem and Japheth. “or she won't give yoty any breakfast." And then they both ran over to her and kissed her. glad of an excuse to show their real feelings. “Now come and get something nice and hot for breakfast," said Mrs. Noah, “for If wa don t eat breakfast pretty soon we’ll have so call it lunch." And in the next story you shall hear of a dreadful collision. But don't worry, for I shan't let anything happen to little Puss Junior nor the kind Noah family.— Copyright, 1921. To lie Continued.
